All the more reason why I had him do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pim Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 I am very careful with my vinyl. I’ve got Charles Tolliver’s Music Inc. Reissue on Pure Pleasure Records (Strata East). It’s one of my favorite records and with 30 euros a pop they aren’t really cheap. So there I was, taking the record very carefully of my player and in just a second... I dropped it, tried to catch in scratch it all across the wall. Now I won’t repeat the swearing words I used but boy did I hate myself that very moment.... still hoping for a miracle I took a good look at the record hoping it was ok but there were scratches all over unfortunately. there is no protection against human stupidity unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of when I bought my new Pro-ject Carbon turntable, and on one of the first LPs I played, I lost hold of the tone arm and it went skittering across the record and the label. The memory still gives me chills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erwbol Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Something less dramatic happened to my Thriller LP in the 80s. Not rare, but I couldn't just afford a new one. Cured early on from vinyl as a result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
